Seismic resistance of existing buildings with added light timber structure storeys
Građevinar, 2022 In the presented paper, the problem of vertical expansions is treated in terms of seismic resistance of structures with added storeys. A large parametric study has been performed, confirming the impact of different number of added storeys, and the change

Application of small-diameter round timber as structural members in light frame construction
Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2022 Small-diameter round timber is a kind of by-product mainly from the thinning operation of the plantations. It is plentiful and inexpensive, and is generally destined for non-structural applications.

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Circular economy (CE) is increasingly adopted by the manufacturing industry to decouple economic growth from environmental impacts by optimizing resource use and minimizing waste generation. Nevertheless, circular manufacturing often triggers systemic responses that diminish or offset their potential environmental gains, resulting in the so ...

Analysis of hysteretic response of glass infilled wooden frames
Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2014 The idea of the present study is to determine the performance of timber-glass hybrid shear wall exposed to monotone and cyclic horizontal in-plane load at the level of story height which is simulation of situation during earthquake or wind load. Fourteen

A NOTE ON METHODS FOR THE ESTIMATION OF THE AIRBORNE SOUND INSULATION OF TIMBER FRAME STRUCTURES [PDF]
Civil Engineering Journal, 2016 Acoustic behavior of structures with wooden elements is nowadays of great interest. At the same time, the estimation of the airborne sound insulation of timber frame structures is a complex procedure which includes the prediction of several resonances ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between industrial robotics adoption and ecological capacity, measured by biocapacity, using panel data from 50 countries over the period 2000–2024. We investigate the transmission mechanisms, non‐linearities, spatial spillovers, and heterogeneity characterizing this relationship.
